THE GAME
Scotland and Portugal drew 0-0 at Hampden Park on Tuesday, leaving the Portuguese side with no chance of securing early qualification for the knockout stages of the Nations League.
SUMMARY
Without goals, the opening half between Scotland and Portugal featured many poor passes, many fouls and little excitement. Cristiano Ronaldo did not shine. The Portuguese star missed shots and controlled the ball in a team that had trouble finishing off plays, while the Scots failed to mount counterattacks.
The match continued at the same pace in the second half. Portugal had better chances in attack, but failed to convert their plays and had few shots on target. The match ended 0-0 on the scoreboard.
SEQUENCE
The two teams will play again on November 15th at 4:45 pm. Scotland will host Croatia, while Portugal will play at home against Poland.
